Terror In The Skies

Channel 4/Smithsonian Channel - 4x60
Using amateur footage shot by passengers, members of the public and airline staff, we will explore real life ‘near misses’ and reveal the extraordinary lengths the aviation industry goes to, to keep an ever growing number of people flying, safely, every year. We look at the safety challenges air travel faces, and how those challenges are being addressed, as well as telling the amazing stories of escape and survival behind every ‘near miss’.
